Tasks to install a DAE5S

EMC VNXe — Installing an Optional 25-Slot Disk-Array Storage System (DAE5S)

11

Task 9: Verify the operation of the new DAE5S

Verify that the new DAE5S is recognized by your system, and operating correctly:

1. In Unisphere™, select System, then System Health.

2. Select the DAE5S in the Component list or the graphical view:

• In the Component list, the new DAE5S should be marked with a status OK icon: 

• In the graphical view, the DAE5S should be highlighted green.

If the system health monitor shows the new DAE5S as faulted, contact your service 
provider.

IMPORTANT

Whenever you introduce new disks to your system, you should verify that all disks of that 
type/model are running the same level of disk firmware. Refer to your online Help for 
details on how to verify and upgrade disk firmware revisions.
